Crest Pro-Health Clinical Line *The Results Are In*

Posted by · Leave a Comment

After a few weeks with Crest and Oral-B Pro-Health Clinical Plaque Control, I defiantely noticed a difference and plan to continue to use the entire line of products. The Glide Clinical Protection floss was by far my favorite, espeically since this was the first time I actually stuck to a flossing regime.

As I mentioned in the first post, when used together the toothpaste, floss, rinse and brush prevent plaque from returning. While I haven’t been able to test this portion of the claim, I have seen a reduction in plaque and plan to contiune to use in the future. The Crest Pro-Health Clinical line makes it easy to shop since they are designed to work together. Learn more about how it works and download Crest coupons and special offers to try it for yourself.

I wrote this review while participating in a test drive campaign by Mom Central Consulting on behalf of Crest and Oral-B and received product samples to facilitate my candid review. Mom Central Consulting sent me a promotional gift to thank me for taking the time to participate.

To My Family: Stop Wearing Clothes! {Tide Pods Giveaway}

Posted by ·

I’ve tried every imaginable system to make laundry less of a chore. Created schedules, alternated days with my husband, brought the kids in on the task…no matter what we try, it seems this is one chore destined to be endless.  I’ve asked my family to stop wearing clothes, but since they refuse laundry continues to pile up each day. Any way to make it simpler, such as one using one of my all-time favorite products, the Bounce Dryer Bar, and I’m all over it.

When I heard about Tide Pods, I naturally jumped on the opportunity to check them out.  The “pods” features three chambers especially designed to brighten, fight stains and clean all in one neat container. Tide Pods also dissolve in all water temperatures. Unfortunately I only had one opportunity to test a pod, which was as easy peasy, when it dawned on me I need dye and perfume free detergent and couldn’t use the remainder of Tide Pods. My son, recently diagnosed with eczema, has extremely sensitive skin, and we’re still getting used to the changes needed to keep breakouts under control. Reluctantly I gave the pods to my mother. Today during a shopping trip to Target I asked her about them. Her response…”Love, Love, Love” which sounded exactly like something I would say! “For convenience I love them. I just realized I was getting to the end and had to go back to liquid, to use it up, and was bummed.”

Jealous, I respectfully request a Tide Free Pod so I may enjoy the same connivence as mom in my laundry routine.

Keurig, Coconut, Contest…Need I Say More?

Posted by ·

As an social media ambassador for a handful of companies, I can honestly say each relationship grew organically as I presented brands my family uses and loves to Cool Baby Kid readers. After one year I’m as excited as ever to share Green Mountain Coffee varieties since our Keurig brewer is a daily fixture in our home. Weekday and weekend, it can be found dependably brewing single cup servings of coffee or tea for myself and my husband.

The latest delivery we received, The Original Donut Shop Coconut Mocha, was a hit with my husband, the coffee drinker, who has branched out every month as I present him with new flavors.  Coconut Mocha K-Cup® pack with the “taste of a rich chocolate donut, topped with flakey coconut” as described by the brand was in his description “really good and kinda chocolate-like.”  The Original Donut Shop Coffee is available in Original, Decaf, and Coconut Mocha K-Cup® packs. You can see the entire collection online at www.greenmountaincoffee.com.

And with this fun flavor comes an equally fun quiz for readers interested in winning…hang onto your hats…a Keurig Brewer!

Why Your Clothes Need a Deep Cleaning {Giveaway}

Posted by · 108 Comments

They say a picture is worth a thousand words, and in this case, it’s true. I could talk all day about hidden stains but the photo to the left says it all. It shows the amount of hidden body oils and sweat in our clothes could actually look like compared to the average visible stains. Ewww.

I will likely never re-wear PJs again. I was first introduced to Wisk Deep Clean when I received all Product of the Year products, I then had the opportunity to test it out myself. It felt good knowing those hidden oils were banished forever, and I’m thrilled to be able to share the wealth with a cool Wish Deep Cleaning contest.

New Pampers Soft Care Wipes *Win Year’s Supply*

Posted by · 202 Comments

The new Soft Care wipes are adorable and more easily portable. The new stylish design negates the need for fancy wipe containers and shove very nicely into a diaper bag, or in my case, a “transition bag” as I like to call it.

Check out the new packaging for yourself by entering to win an exciting giveaway. One lucky reader will receive a year’s supply of Pampers Soft Care wipes…because Pampers rocks!
